摘要 目的:探讨弥散张量成像(DTI)在发现早期肌萎缩侧索硬化症(ALS)上运动神经元损害中的临床意义。方法:21例ALS患者在行DTI检查时,8例无明显上运动神经元(UMN)受累体征,但在病程后期均出现了临床锥体束征的ALS患者作为A组,13例有明确UMN损害体征的ALS患者作为B组,20例健康人作为对照组。对所有研究对象行轴位DTI扫描,选取感兴趣区(ROI)测量部分各向异性分数(FA)和平均弥散系数(MD)。结果:与对照组比较,A组内囊后肢(u=3.974,P<0.01)、大脑脚(u=3.580,P<0.01)、延髓锥体(u=2.402,P<0.05)处的FA值明显减低,内囊后肢(u=2.168,P<0.05)处的MD值增高,A、B2组间该3个ROI处的FA、MD值差异无统计学意义。结论:DTI可发现ALS早期UMN损害,有助于ALS的早期诊断。 Objective: To explore the clinical value of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in finding early damage of upper motor neuron (UMN) in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (AKS). Methods:Eight patients in group A had no sign of UMN damage when doing DTI examination, but all developed clinical pyramidal signs. Group B included thirteen patients who had definite sign of UMN damage. Twenty healthy volunteers served as control group. All subjects underwent a DTI se- quence. The fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD) were measured from the chosen region of interest (ROI). Results:In group A, FA decreased on the posterior limb of internal capsule(PIC)(u=3.974, P 〈 0.01 ), cerebral peduncle (u= 3.580, P 〈 0.01 )and the pyramids of medulla oblongata (u=2.402, P 〈 0.05 ), MD increased on the PIC level (u=2.168, P 〈 0.05 ), compared with those in the control group. There were no statistical differences in FA and MD on those three ROIs be- tween group A and B. Conclusion: DTI can detect early damage of UMN of ALS patients, which would facilitate potential earlier diagnosis of ALS.
